We sleep at night and rise early in the morning hearing the sweet song of different birds. There are different types of birds in the earth. They are different in color, size and habit. They eat different kinds of food. Some birds eat fish and flesh; some live on warms and insects, some on fruits and grains, some on filth and garbage’s. Birds are divided into many classes.

They are teasing birds, song birds, rapacious birds, game birds, migratory birds and tailor birds.

Teasing birds: crows and kites are teasing birds. It is very cleaver. It steals away the food and other small things from our kitchen.

It looks ugly yet it is useful. It feeds on dead animals and dirty things. It has a harsh voice. The kite also steals away chickens, Fish and pieces of flesh.

Song birds: the cuckoo is the most popular of all song birds. The nightingale are well known song birds.
